Meet Ms. Ruffolo

Hello Everyone! 

My name is Chelsea Ruffolo. This is my first year at Tulita and I am so excited to meet the students and parents in this amazing community! I grew up in Chicago and moved to the West coast to pursue my passion for working in the school system with kids. I received my bachelor's degree in psychology from the University of Iowa and a master's degree in counseling with my Pupil Services Credential at Loyola Marymount University. I began my journey in education as a mental health therapist in Torrance and last year was the 7th-grade counselor at Beverly Vista Middle School. 

 My passion is working with students and helping them reach their full academic, social and emotional potential. I aim to provide support and resources so that every student is successful. In my free time I enjoy going to the beach, hanging out with my friends, and finding new dessert places to try. I will be on campus Wednesday and Thursday, and I look forward to supporting you!
